of the latter creek to Canada Gap. continuiiic,- in the same direction and. 

 passing- a half mile sonth of Godsey Post Otfice. it crosses into Morgan 

 County three-quarters of a mile east of Godsey. S\Yin,iiinf;- southeastward 

 it re-enters Monroe County where Hacker's Creek leaves it, extending- up 

 that creek to the neigh! )orhood of Hacker's schoolhouse. From here 

 eastward tlie drift limit becomes liarder to trace. The ice-sheet must 

 liave been very thin, since the topography shows little, if any, moditica- 

 tion. Scattered erratics are found all over the ridge dividing the waters 

 oi' Roberts' Creek from the lieadwaters of Honey and Hacker's creeks. 

 If seems probable that the foot of the ice-sheet rested on this hill, and 

 that the drift found in the head waters of Honey Creek was carried there 

 by the water resulting from tlie melting of the glaciei'. Many large 

 granite bowlders from one to three feet in diameter are found along the 

 small stream leading north from Hubbard's Gap. in Sec. 11 (10 N.. 1 E.), 

 and along the other tributaries of Roberts' Creek. In section two of the 

 same township heavy deposits of sand, gravel and till lie against the 

 hillsides. In the neighborhood of (iodsey Post Otflce the same plienomena 

 may be seen. Heavy beds of gravel and till lie against the hillsides 

 bordering their slopes on the south. In Canada Gap, section 1) (10 N.. 

 1 W.), the evidences of ice occupation are plain thoiigh the quantity 

 of -drift material is very limited. The territory between Indian Creek 

 and Bean Blossom Creek and Wliite River displays evidence of ice 

 occupation in many places in moditied topography and deposits of till, 

 sand and gravel. Till, sand and gravel occiir in the valleys leading south 

 from Hubbard's Gap in the vicinity of Fleener Post ()fTice. and patches 

 of these same materials ar(» occasionally met with south of the divide 

 east of that gap. On tlie whole tlie drift is thick in the valleys and thin 

 on the hills. This light drift on the liills indicates that the ice-sheet which 

 crossed them was comparatively thin. 



OUT-WASH AND EOLIAN DEPOSITS. 



North of Mount Tabor and between there and Gosport, as well as the 

 south slope of the hills between Mount Tabor and Ellet's hill are covered 

 with a heavy deposit of sand. A sand apparently identical with the 

 above caps several hills and fills several preglacial ravines on the south 

 side of Bean Brossom Creek near Andrew Stine's residence about two
